Welcome To Roanoke, VA

Welcome to Roanoke, The Star City of the South

Known by many as the hub of southwest Virginia, Roanoke is an independent city with a lot of flair. Roanoke is nicknamed "The Star City of the South" and is situated among the Blue Ridge Mountains, Roanoke Valley, and the Roanoke River. Its geographic location makes the city perfect for lovers of the outdoors, but the addition of the city's numerous theatres, museums, festivals, and sports teams make Roanoke stand out as one of the best cities in the Southeast.

Things To Do

The Virginia Museum of Transportation is dedicated to celebrating transportation of all kinds. The museum features exhibits on automotives and trains as well as a large collection of automobiles and rolling stock.

The Mill Mountain Zoo hosts a variety of exotic animals and is located on the top of Mill Mountain. Included on this list of animals are several endangered species, including the red panda and the snow leopard.

The Taubman Museum of Art is located in downtown Roanoke and hosts a permanent collection of over 2,000 American artworks from the 19th and 20th centuries. The museum also has a variety of smaller collections which cover styles such as modern and contemporary art, Southern folk art, photography, and design.

The Mill Mountain Theatre entertains the city of Roanoke and has produced plays and musicals in the region for over 50 years. The professional theatre company also provides arts and theatre education for children and adults throughout the year, and has become a staple of the local Roanoke community.
